Ok. This was dumb. Turner gets us starting quality udfa. We don't need to draft rb's. If he doesn't run 4.3 he's not touching the ball. Mostert hasty wilson will take us to the super bowl. This makes no sense based on we need another OL and edge since we will get zero snaps from ford this year.
Even Mike Shanahan spent earlier picks on RBs. Sometimes just having a guy that is passable like Wilson, just isn't enough. I'm not mad about this pick, Sermon is a great scheme fit and a monster in the open field.
This. While you can get by with guys like Olandis Gary, etc, its different when you get a talented player in there. If Mike had his pick between a Gary, Droughs, or Anderson and Clinton Portis, he's picking Portis. Id assume Kyle is the same.
I recognize it's always better to have a stud who knows what he's doing -- my point is we are a need-driven team team right now. Big holes to fill. We can't waste picks on nice-to-haves when compton and mcg are impersonating the turnstile twins and our $20m dollar investment at left edge can't roll over in bed without an application of morphine. We need meat and potatoes not creme brulet.
Probably going the meh defense route and see if you can outscore the offense route and control the clock game.
Defense looks solid save for the back end. Looked pretty good last year without several major players.
